"If the Russians broke - they and pay": in the US decide how to give Ukraine $ 300 billion from the accounts of the Russian Federation

According to the Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, the Russians have to pay for the restoration of Ukraine, so the use of frozen assets can be one of the quite real ways to do it. The United States and EU countries study the legal grounds for transferring $ 300 billion frozen abroad Russian assets. These funds want to direct our country to the restoration of our country. This was stated on October 4 by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken during a discussion at Texas University.

According to him, legal grounds are required to transfer assets. "I think if you broke something, then pay. And if the Russians have broken, they have to pay for it. And one way to do it - just because of these assets. Since most of these assets - in Europe, Europeans should also be convinced that There is a legal basis for this, "he explained. Anthony Blinken said that Ukraine can give $ 300 billion.

At the same time, he noted that the world community cannot allow Russia to destroy Ukraine, since other aggressor countries decide that there will be no punishment for any action. "It is Pandora's box with conflicts. No one will be good in this world, in the world of conflict and aggression," the Secretary of State said. He also added that the United States will be more expensive than the support of Ukraine, which has already been joined by 50 countries.

It should be noted that Vitaliy Shapran, an economist, a member of the Financial Analytics Society, in February 2023, told focus that the amount of assets that Ukraine could get from the EU as part of the confiscation may be at the level of 300-400 billion euros. But the final amount depends on the rate of euro and the speed of European competent assets search.
